Take That Rule Out Playing

[craiga]

No.

"The Libertines are an English rock band. Formed in London in 1997 by frontmen Carl Barât (vocals/lead guitar) and Pete Doherty (vocals/rhythm guitar)"

"In 1989, Nigel Martin-Smith sought to create a British male vocal singing group."

The difference is very clear.

[Wanderlei]

We will always disagree about musical credibility and styles but can we all agree that Gary Barlow as an active Tory, ( he has shared a platform with Cameron) should not at any point be invited to perform his bland, saccharine lyrics to what has always been a predominately socialist and alternative festival where so many politically charged heavyweight acts have trodden before.

"I would not be here if I was not," the singer said.

What the f**k does that mean?

[sifi]

I did not say they were identical, so I'm nt sure why you lead with the word no and then procededed to show me the difference in a mocking style.

I'm still trying to get you to put into words what manufactured is. Is it now purely because the band auditioned, or is it because they are a singing group?

[jameshunt]

Have they ruled out miming as well?

[StoneCircle]

[craiga]

You said almost identical.

Where in fact, it bore very little similarities. One was an existing band which played it's on instruments, and the other was an idea in a music executive's head as how to make shite loads of money using an already existing model in America.

Did lily Allen not sing along to a loud backing track of her singing when she last played glasonbury?

[sifi]

Thanks for highlighting the word almost, I did put it there to say they weren't identical.

One auditioned, one didn't. One plays instruments, one didn't. Take that do now play instruments, but I wont dwell on that.

Both were shaped to fit a certain Market. Both were made to mimic an already successful band. That is the part that makes them both manufactured, or should I say that's why I think they are both manufactured.

List of people who haven't won an IN award

Bob Dylan

Does that make Barlow a better song writer, then?

[eFestivals]

As we've discussed at least one of them has a writing credit in ALL their songs, in many occasions he has a sole writing credit

Really? I hadn't realised that Dan Hartman had joined Take That. My bad.

If you don't like them, fine, but don't make up stories that suggest your opinions are justified

Like you have, you mean?

How can you have a songwriting award which has never been given to the man who wrote desolation row?

[russycarps]

Nick Cave isn't on their either. But don't worry, The Darkness, Gabrielle and Duffy are!

So maybe his Bob-ship has just never agreed to turn up.
